Helpfulness of manager: I rang re best times to visit and he rang me back within a quarter of an hour, he could not have been more helpful in words or tone of voice.

Helpfulness of manager: I rang re best times to visit and he rang me back within a quarter of an hour, he could not have been more helpful in words or tone of voice. Friendliness and helpfulness of two staff members - one taking me to my friend's room, the other helping me use the lift. Atmosphere was very relaxed and friendly. Residents' call buttons produce a much less intrusive sound than other homes I have visited.
If I ask for information about my wife's health or welfare I know that the staff will answer my questions fully.

The Oaks is a very friendly and welcoming home. Residents always look happy, well cared for, with friendly staff, like a family. The manager is always there, interacting with everybody - welcoming. Care given is beyond their duties and looks like they enjoy their jobs. Entertainment is really enjoyed as the residents say. Wonderful place!

My grandma has been at The Oaks Care Home for a couple of years. I don't visit often as I live abroad. Came for Easter and I was amazed! Wow! The home looks great, like a home. Staff are kind, caring, welcoming, going the extra mile to see everyone happy. Had a chat with the manager, she really knows her residents, knew everything about my grandma! Open and so nice, has time for everybody. My grandma looked so well cared for, clean, happy and smiling. Entertainment was going on and residents appeared to enjoy it! The home was clean and smelled like fresh cooking/baking. Hope I can visit more often! Well done to the staff at The Oaks.

The Oaks Care Home is run and managed efficiently and gives friendly care to the residents. There are shared toilets at the home and facilities could be improved, but the staff and carers do an excellent job with what they have to work with. My wife feels well cared for and enjoys talking to the staff. The food is good, especially the puddings (my wife says).
Thank you for taking the time to review our home. Your wife is a delight to care for and it's always great to see you during visits. Thank you also for your constructive comments, it would be good to discuss them with you if you have a chance to meet with me. Kindest regards.
From the minute she arrived, I knew it was the right place for her. The staff were very welcoming and were experienced in dealing with the types of problems my mam...
I would just like to congratulate all staff on such a fantastic job they are all doing to turn this home around.

My uncle has been in the home for over a couple of years, and I have to say the staff are fantastic and every time we come and visit my uncle is always happy and looks well cared for. Over the last 9 months, the home has undergone a lot of redecoration which has just added to the homely feel. My uncle was able to pick the colours for his room and we were able to personalise this from him. The home in my opinion is just going from strength to strength and has an excellent manager at the helm and I can not praise this home enough. The staff are hard working, compassionate, friendly approachable and make families feel involved in the home. Everything you should expect in a care home. Thanks to everyone at The Oaks, who makes a difference to my uncle's life!
Thank you for your fantastic 5-star review of our home, we are all over the moon to read your kind words. It is a delight to care for your uncle and we really appreciate how you recognise all of the great changes we've made at the home. We will share your wonderful praise with the team. Kindest regards.
The Oaks Care Home cared for both my parents. Dad especially, as he was bed-bound. With his passing, they were amazing until the very end. Very empathetic and professional. Living abroad means that I come to visit once a year and spend lots of time in and out of the home. The staff are friendly,...
The Oaks Care Home cared for both my parents. Dad especially, as he was bed-bound. With his passing, they were amazing until the very end. Very empathetic and professional. Living abroad means that I come to visit once a year and spend lots of time in and out of the home. The staff are friendly, fun and always laughing. They always answer the phone when calling from anywhere at any time.
Please accept our condolences again on the passing of your dad. Know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Thank you for taking the time to review our home. We will share your kind words with our staff team, who we know will be deeply touched by them. Do not hesitate to get in touch at any time. Take care and keep safe.
On May 30th, my relative was admitted as an emergency respite to The Oaks Care Home. I had packed just an overnight bag for him as I had not expected to be in hospital for more than 24 hours. However, I need a lot of recovery time, so on Wednesday 1st June I struggled over with more clothes and was...
On the Monday I spoke with the manager who assured me he would be taken better care of and things would improve. Apparently, they were unaware of his difficulty with washing and dressing - his care plan was sent over from social services, so there was no excuse.
Your family member was placed with us as an emergency respite as you were going into hospital. You visited...

Thank you for your lovely comments and hopefully, we will see you soon once restrictions are lifted.
My elderly mother has been a resident now for a year and a half she settled quickly and loves being there. Staff and management have and are doing a great job in keeping all residents safe, especially through the present pandemic. Many thanks.

Test visits are great, pity home can only manage one a week. Video calls can be a bit hit and miss at times. (Sometimes have to phone home if they forget). My wife looks well cared for and is happy to be there.

This was my first visit inside The Oaks since restrictions started over a year ago. I was met at the door by a member of staff, who called a staff member to take my Covid test. All was well, so I was escorted to the meeting room after being equipped with PPE equipment. My husband was happy, clean and tidy. I understand it has been a very busy day, yet the five staff I met (including the manager) were cheerful and chatty. Well done.
Thank you for your kind words, and hopefully, see you soon.
